Vote: what does a digital twin mean to you?
1. Better visualisation of your data/assets (e.g. VR/3D models)
2. Complex analytical models – simulation/emulation/AI tools
3. A virtual source of data/information on an asset
4. Better data sharing and visibility across parties
5. A step towards digital transformation

What is a digital twin? A digital twin is a virtual representation of an asset, providing both an historical ledger of the asset’s
previous states, and real-time data on the asset’s current state
The generic evolution of digital twins

Why digital twins? Digital twins is not a new technology – it’s a philosophy of data centricity

Interoperabilityacross heterogeneous networks requires services for both managing data and exercising controls.
The autonomous future requires
more than just data integration
Process automation is moving from manual
intervention to full autonomy.
Advent of 5G will enable real time
interactions across the wide area network.
Actionable insight needs to be actioned in a
timely relevant manner in the agile world
